About Us

In 2014 I was at a primary school leaders day with my son at the Brisbane Convention Centre, my son was school Captain of Windsor School. The day was a motivational day where Para Olympians were talking about their struggles and triumphs. I received a phone call from the company lawyer where I was working saying the company was going into liquidation and no invoices would be paid, I was a contractor and had built up an ongoing revenue from introducing client’s. With most staff left in the lurch I was able to call Merran, the head of payroll and asked if I start a company would she help me run it, she said yes.

I started working from home in Brisbane and Merran from home office in Melbourne, with a few loyal clients and candidates. Fast forward 7 years and we now have 5 staff in Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia and a team of Independent Recruiters who trust us with helping them manage their businesses in most states of Australia.
